新冠疫情期间，安东尼·福奇博士的私人日记如今被曝光，其中2020年初的条目显示，他私下预估的新冠疾病死亡率，远低于数周后他在国会宣誓作证时告知议员的数值。
现年85岁的福奇多年来一直因领导美国新冠疫情应对的方式，以及所谓的与病毒起源地中国实验室的关联而饱受严密审视。他将于本周三重返国会山，出席参议院国土安全与政府事务委员会的听证会，就其新近公开的个人记录作证。
“综合包括中国在内的所有数据来看，本次疫情的总体病死率约为3%。最初的数值是2%到3%，”根据众议院监督委员会2020年3月11日听证会的 transcript，福奇在作证时说道。

主流媒体忽视了揭露福奇误导国会关于新冠起源的大规模文件披露
在病毒传入美国仅数周后的那次听证会上，共和党籍德克萨斯州众议员迈克尔·克劳德请福奇对比新冠病死率与季节性流感的病死率。
“我认为，如果将所有轻症或无症状感染病例都计算在内，病死率可能会降至1%左右，这意味着它的致命性是季节性流感的10倍，”福奇继续说道，“我认为人们能够理解并接受这个数值。”
但在2020年2月8日，也就是此次国会作证约一个月前，福奇私下表示，他认为新冠病毒的病死率远低于后来告知议员的数值。
“[美国前疾控中心主任]汤姆·弗里登今早给我打了电话，我们讨论了疫情爆发的多个方面，”福奇写道，“他和我看法一致，都认为病毒的传播性类似于严重流感，且感染总数远高于34867例（上文提及），因此病死率（CFR）更接近0.2%-0.3%，而非2.0%。”

福奇新公开的新冠日记曝光：随着疫情死亡人数攀升，他却痴迷于名气
根据他的日记，当时福奇统计的新冠确诊病例为34687例，死亡724例，病死率刚好略高于0.2%。
福奇在疫情期间担任美国国立过敏和传染病研究所（NIAID）所长，在唐纳德·特朗普总统第一任期内新冠疫情爆发初期，他率先成为抗击新冠疫情的公众面孔，并在乔·拜登总统任期内继续担任该职务，直至2022年退休。
这份极具影响力的职位并未被福奇忽视。他的日记记录了自己影响力的攀升和媒体出镜情况，还细致记录了外界对他的报道评价。
“《华盛顿邮报》头版刊登了一篇关于我的重磅报道，内容非常正面。我在国内和国际上的名气暴涨，简直难以想象，”他在2020年5月21日的日记中写道。
“毫不夸张地说，如今我是全美最知名、谈论度最高的人物，也是全球最易被认出的人之一，”他继续写道。

福奇私人日记内幕：他写下对特朗普、电视名人与名流的看法
福奇提到，他与特朗普正发展出“一段独特且有趣的关系”。
他的日记中还粘贴了提及他的新闻头条截图，包括2020年3月《纽约时报》一篇题为《并非首次应对疫情，安东尼·福奇博士坚持实事求是》的报道。
他在2020年8月8日的日记中提到了另一篇《华盛顿邮报》文章，标题为《当福奇对抗疫情与政治时，心怀感激的邻居将他视为英雄》。

Exposed Fauci diary shows he estimated COVID-19 death rate to be much lower than what he told Congress

Entries from early 2020 in a now-exposed personal diary kept by Dr. Anthony Fauci during the COVID-19 pandemic show that he privately estimated the death rate from the illness was significantly lower than what he told Congress under oath only weeks later.
Fauci, 85, has come under intense scrutiny for years regarding his approach leading the U.S. response to the coronavirus pandemic, and his alleged links to the Chinese lab where the virus originated. He will return to Capitol Hill on Wednesday before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee to speak about his newly publicized personal records.
“The stated mortality over all of this when you look at all the data including China is about three percent. It first started off as two and three,” Fauci said in testimony before the House Oversight Committee on March 11, 2020, according to a transcript of the hearing.

LEGACY MEDIA IGNORES MASSIVE ANTHONY FAUCI DOCUMENT RELEASE ALLEGING HE MISLED CONGRESS ON COVID ORIGINS
During the hearing just weeks into the virus reaching the U.S., he was asked by Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, to compare the mortality from COVID-19 to the mortality of the seasonal flu.
“I think if you count all the cases of minimally symptomatic or asymptomatic infection, that probably brings the mortality rate down to somewhere around one percent, which means it is 10 times more lethal than the seasonal flu,” Fauci continued. “I think that is something that people can get their arms around and understand.”
But on Feb. 8, 2020, about a month before that congressional testimony, Fauci expressed privately that he believed the virus’s mortality rate was much lower than what he later told lawmakers.
“[Former CDC Director] Tom Frieden called me this AM and we discussed various aspects of the outbreak,” Fauci wrote. “He and I are on the same page in thinking tht [sic] this is acting like a bad influenza in its transmissibility and that the denominator is much greater than 34,867 (above) making the case fatality rate (CFR) more like 0.2-0.3 % rather than 2.0%.”

FAUCI’S NEWLY RELEASED COVID DIARIES REVEAL BIZARRE FIXATION ON FAME AS PANDEMIC DEATHS MOUNTED
At that time, Fauci had counted 34,687 cases of the virus and 724 fatalities, according to his diary, which equals just over 0.2%.
Fauci was the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) during the pandemic, and first became the face of combatting COVID-19 at the onset of the pandemic during President Donald Trump’s first term, and remained in the role under President Joe Biden until retiring in 2022.
The very influential position wasn’t lost on Fauci. His diary entries tracked his rising influence and press appearances, and he meticulously kept track of how he was portrayed.
“Big front page article abut me appeared in the Washington Post. Very flattering. The situation with my national and international fame is explosive and really unimaginable,” he wrote in a diary entry on May 21, 2020.
“It is not hyoperbole [sic] to say that today I am the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable peson in the world,” he continued.

INSIDE FAUCI’S PRIVATE DIARY: WHAT HE WROTE ABOUT TRUMP, TV PERSONALITIES AND CELEBRITIES
Fauci noted that he was developing a “very unique and interesting relationship” with Trump.
His diary is adorned with screenshots of headlines that mentioned him, including a New York Times story from March 2020 titled, “Not His First Pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci Sticks to the Facts.”
He referenced another Washington Post article in his diary on Aug. 8, 2020, titled, “As Fauci battles the pandemic and politics, his grateful neighbors celebrate him as a hero.”
